How to be a Man
How to be a Man: A Guide to Style and Behavior for the Modern Gentleman

If you have read DETAILS or GQ magazines over the past few years, you’ve probably seen the Style column written by Glenn O’Brien.

You may mock the recommendation for this book or others like it that have variations of “for the Modern Man” in the title, but you’ll find that if you pick them up and give them a quick glance, you’ll find at least a dozen helpful hints and suggestions hidden among all the things that you may feel don’t apply to you.

In other words, go out and get it.  And frankly, any of these books make great gifts to your favorite nephew or younger cousin just about to enter high school or college.  Might even get them set into the right direction as they’re about to head off into adulthood.

The long-held reasoning was that it was physically impossible to fold a piece of paper in half more than eight times, but Britney Gallivan proved that paper could be folded over 12 times.

We’ve all seen BACK TO THE FUTURE, where all you need to have is an almanac of sports results from the future in order to make yourself a billionaire.

But the concept does lend itself to a bigger question if you were to time-travel further back in time to when ancient civilizations could be really impressed with what we see as everyday, common technology:  WHAT WOULD YOU BRING WITH YOU FROM THE FUTURE THAT WOULD MAKE ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS BELIEVE YOU WERE A GOD?

Like you don’t already think of yourself as a god anyway. Continue reading WHAT ONE ITEM WOULD YOU BRING WITH YOU IF YOU TRAVELLED BACK IN TIME? →

Dove, the skin care folks, have asked this question of women everywhere:  “DO YOU LOVE YOUR ARMPITS?”.

Would you believe that 93% of women surveyed said, “no”?

That’s right – women don’t care for their own armpits… yet Web Watch knows some women who love sticking their nose directly into their man’s armpits, just to take a big whiff.

Maybe beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  But we digress… Continue reading ARMPITS MAY BE STINKY, BUT IT’S A PRETTY STINK →
